Coking Goals of Kentucky.
John RI. Proctor, State Geologistl

Hitherto but few attempts have
been made to coke coal In Kentucky
and these only on Il small scale.
Experiments prove that a strong
coke with high fixed uatbon could
be made from one of the Goals in the
Western coal field, but the percent
age Of sulphur was high and the
attempts to reduce this by washing
the coal were not successful, though
others now in progress may be.
During the summer of 1881 the
State Geological Survey discovered
d thick coal near the southeastern
border Of the state, which, from re-
peated analtsis;gdre such excellent
results that in the following year
tests were MAIDS proving this to be a
superior toking toal. This coal has
been traced over wide area and its
coking properties tested.
Prof. Cfandall gives eight Goals of
workable thickness above the Con-
glomerate or Milestone Grit and
in the Section betwean Pine and
Cumberland Mountains, i'll Eetcher
and Harlan counties, as many as
twelve workable beds OF coal have
been identified. The eoking seam
named "Elkhorn Seam from the
stream in Pike county, where it was
first discovered, is coal No. 8, com
ing upwards from theConglomerate
1t has been traced as s. thick bed
above drainage through the greater
parts of Pike, Letcher and Harl an
counties, and over large part of
Floyd, Knott, Leslie; Perry and Bell
counties. 1t has also been idehtifi-
ed as a wofkaBl e coal in Wolf, Clay
and Breathitt counties. THIS coal
attains its maximum thickness in
Pike, Letcher and Harlan counties
bu. s'thick enough for profitable
mining, where transportation may
be afforded, in all Of the c6tnties
mentioned above.

peoples money, and to give the poor
man every possible benefit of the sit
uation? Good. You are right.
Under Republican regime monOpo-
ly was rampant. See for yourselves
how it has grown during the last twen-
ty years. Great corporations have
received great privileges, by which q
few have become immensely rich at
the expense of the people. That kind
of Republicanism was a sham and a
humbug.
You expressed an opinion on the
subject in 1884, when y.u said, We
have had enough of " u-step down"
Under the same regime your land has
been stolen by the million acres you
see that we are calling a spade u spade
and the farms-your farm which,
your children or your children's chl-
drep will want by aud by-have hecn
taken from you by hocus pocus mixed
with perjury waist deep.
You want to check monopoly and
reclaim this stolen land? 1t can be
done. and you can help to do it. When
Mr. Cleveland went to the White
House, at your bidding, he was pledg.
ed to rip open these plots for aggran-
dizement. He has been opposed by
syndicates. by railroad corporations
with millions at command and shrewd
lobbyists at the Capitol to "infiuence"
legislation. But he is good fighter.
Your party, the party of the Democ'
racy, must stand by him. During the
last two years an area of territory more
than twice the extent of Ireland has
been reclaimed, and the land grabbers
have been told, "You can't have it.
